Not necessarily. Just from three hours away would probably do with a little bit of storage.
The sun is always shining somewhere and the wind is always blowing somewhere.
We should be investing in better transmission systems and grid interconnects. Doing this will enable places that momentarily have more solar and wind than they need to sell that energy to their neighbours. Add vehicle to grid and a lot of the intermittency problems are eminently soluble.
